一 课文翻译: Unit 2 A Pioneer For All People
造福全人类的先驱者
尽管是中国最著名的科学家之一，袁隆平仍然认为自己是个农民，因为他在田里耕作，进行科学研究。的确，他被太阳晒得黝黑的脸庞和和手臂，以及他那瘦削而又结实的身躯，就跟其他千百万中国农民一样，过去50年来，他一直在努力帮助他们。袁博士种植的是被称为“超级杂交水稻的”的稻种。1974年，他成为世界上第一位种植高产水稻的农业先锋。这种特殊的稻种使得同样的田地多收获三分之一的产量。如今中国每年出产的稻米有60%以上出自这种杂交稻种。
袁博士1930年出生，1953年毕业于西南农学院。从那时起，找到水稻高产的方法就成为他一生的目标。年轻时，他就看到了稻田增产的巨大需求。当时，饥荒是许多农村地区面临的严重问题。袁博士要在不增加土地面积的基础上寻求达到增收稻谷的途径。1950年，中国农民只能生产五千万吨稻谷，而近来却生产了将近两亿吨稻谷。这一粮食产量的增加意味着中国仅仅7%的耕地养活了世界22%的人口。袁博士现在在印度、越南和很多其他欠发达国家传播提高水稻产量的知识。多亏了他的研究，联合国在消除世界饥饿的战斗中有了更多的办法。用他的杂交水稻种子，农民种出的粮食比以前多了一倍。
袁博士很满意他的生活。但是，他对成名并不在意，并且觉得出名后搞科研就不那么自由了。他宁愿把时间花在自己的业余爱好上。他喜欢听小提琴乐曲、打麻将、游泳和读书。在自己身上花钱或者享受舒适的生活对袁博士来说意义不大。事实上，他认为一个人有了太多钱，他的麻烦事只会更多，而不是更少。于是，他拿出好几百万元帮助其他人进行农业科学研究。
梦想是不花本钱的。很久以前，袁博士曾在梦里看到水稻长得像高粱一样高，稻穗跟玉米穗一样大，而每粒稻谷像花生米一样大。袁博士从梦中醒来，希望能种植一种能养活更多人的水稻。在很多年后的今天，袁博士还有另外一个梦想，那就是他的稻谷可以出口并长遍全球。一个梦想总是不够的，尤其对一个热爱和关心人民的人来说更是如此。
